Song: Build Us Back
Band: Newsboys
Album: Born Again
I play it with a capo on the 2. fret like they do in the song. But if you dont wanna
play with capo it is : Em = F#m, C=D, G=A, D=E
It sounds better if you play the chords like this:
Em = 0,2,2,0,3,3 C = x,3,2,0,3,3 G = 3,2,0,0,3,3 and D is normal (
Just always let 2 Fingers on the 3. fret of the e-string and b-string. (With Capo 2!)
Intro: C, Em, G, D (2x)
Verse 1:
Em
We've been crumbled, we've been crushed
C
City walls have turned to dust
G D
Uh oh oh, Uh oh oh
Em
Broken hands and blistered feet
C
We walk for miles to find relief
G D
Uh oh oh, Uh oh oh

Verse 2:

We are scared, we are poor

From these ruins, we believe

Uh oh oh, Uh oh oh
